How exactly does the UN expect to enforce their "resolution" that Israel stop building settlements on their own land?

If the UN attempts to put sanctions on Israel, the US Ambassador to the UN, soon to be Nicki Haley, will veto any such sanctions and any military solutions to force Israel to stop building on it's own land. The UN is a threat without a way to enforce without the US.

    What do you mean by "their own land?"

    Even the Israeli Supreme Court admits the West Bank does not belong to Israel and never has.

    They're busy violating the 4th geneva convention.

    Sanctions don't need to be approved by the security council to be enforced or have your forgotten the sanctions on Russia? The US isn't the only one who can impose sanctions on an apartheid government.

    (You might look at the history of sanctions against South Africa before opening your pie hole again.)

    Actually the sanctions are enforceable by the 14 member nations who signed the resolutions. Israel exists but need to step up to the two state process and not allow Netanyahu to lead them away from democracy. Nikki whatever her name is will have absolutely no power what so ever to change anything !

    "The UN is a threat without a way to enforce without the US."

    Not true actually.

    You speak as if the US is the only one with the ability to help the UN use military action for enforcing international law.

    This is not the case.

    They won't enforce much of anything, if the US cuts their funding. And, I would have done that long ago.

    They are not building on their own land, other people live there, they don't own it.
